“That is the 500 at The Bend done, the very first one we have done here and it was a pretty crazy race for The Mobil 1 Optus Racing #25,” said Mostert.
“We started P10 and finished up P8, we tried a different strategy to most people today and it ended up being the same as the three stopper, we tried to go as fast as we could but we didn’t have the tyre life.
“It was great to have my mate Fabs back this weekend, he had an awesome start and I was getting nervous watching him up the pointy end but he did a fantastic job, I’m gutteed we didn’t get a result for him and the team.”
